IWBNI there were a smart shape tool called Custom Slur that would allow one to specify optional text to be positioned at the start or end of a slur. Custom Slurs would have some of the characteristics of Custom Lines with the line being replaced by a slur and they would have all of the intelligence of the existing Smart Shape Slurs.

Such a tool could be used to create slurs that occur in combination with articulations such as tenuto, staccato or accents.
